Colour Field

The Colour field is a simple HTML colour picker. The user picks a colour, the platform stores it as a hex string (e.g. #0d6efd) in the underlying database column.

Conditional options

None.

Common uses

  • Theming / branding fields on a tenant or instance config.
  • Status colours on a workflow.
  • Calendar event colours.
  • Per-row highlight colours in browse views (paired with the Colour Field option on a Dropdown's source data).

Rendering colour values elsewhere

The stored hex string can be referenced in CSS or HTML templates using the standard ##AMDATA_rowname## merge token — e.g. style="background-color: ##AMDATA_themecolour##".
